A few years ago I was fishing on the Navarre pier and Danny had a bud who was sharing some canned mullet, it had been canned with peppers and I dont know what else but would love to get the recipe if anyone has it. It was great stuff !

I DON'T CARE FER CANNED TUNA BUT CANNED MULLET IS FANTASTIC!!!!!!! My buddy cuts up chunks then puts a few slices of jalepeno in the bottom with a small amount of olive oil, then pressure cooks it. unfortunately don't know how long or what temp??? My aunt in Va does deer meet too, and that is purty good too! All canned meats looks nasty, but makes good snacks!!!! Oughta be able to find out on line some where??? Good luck!:letsdrink

<SPAN id=_ctl1_ctlTopic_ctlPanelBar_ctlTopicsRepeater__c tl5_lblFullMessage>Alot of different ways that people can them. This is the easiest way to me:

Take several fillets of mullet and add them to about the bottom of the lid line on a mason jar (about 1/4 inch from the top). You can put hot mustard, jalapeno's, hot sauce or nothing at all to them. Do not add water or oil as the mullet will put off enough liquid to keep it moist. Seal thejar with new seals and rings, tighten them and place in a pressure cooker (don't forget to add water to the pressure cookerto about halfway up the outside of the jar) and pressure cook for 1 hour. Let the pressure cooker release and remove the jars (use an oven mitt or towel), place them on something heat resistant and tighten the lid again (use the towel!). You will begin to hear the seals popping as they cool. This let's you know that you have a good seal. It's kinda neat to look at the jars15 to20 minutes later and they are still boiling inside the jar. I swear this will be some of the best snack food you will eat out on a fishing trip or hunting. It will beat the hell out of a can of tuna. If you need some help just holler at me and I can walk you through it.

Cook it for 90 minutes at 10 PSI (90 minutes once you reach pressure)... I'll post some old links from recipes I posted a few years ago. Everyone who tries it always wants more. It's nothing like canned Tuna!!!

Man that is some good stuff! Mullet seems to work the best! Everyone I give it to loves it! It's a lot of work but well worth it. It keeps for months and can be eaten right out of the jar without heating it or anything.

Cut up the fish into chunk 1" or so and the thickness of the filet. If a larger fish, you may want to split. 1/4" or so works well. Put on ice...

Chop up a good onion or a few depending on your batch. Put in a bowl.

Get some sliced Jalapinpos and place in a bowl.

Get some whole bay leaves and place in a bowl.

I like the pint jars because they are just enough but any would work. Wash well and boil the tops to get the seal to get sticky.

Lay out fish on wax paper or whatever and sprinkle with Tony's, Garlic Salt and whatever else you want. I usually only do those two.

Remove all water from jars and load with fish, onions, pepers and repeat until 1/4" from the top. Place a bay leaf on top and hand tighten the lid on.

Repeat until you have filled the pressure cooker and put on heat with water in the cooker. Amount of water depends on size of cooker but put enough to last 90 minutes. Set on 10PSI and cook for 90 minutes once the pressure valve jiggles.

Let cool, open and remove the jars. Wait an hour and check the lids to make sure they sealed. If not, eat at once or discard.

The others will have about 1/2 liquid in the jar... this is normal. Put up and eat on a ritz! I've eaten it 9 months later and didn't get sick!
